The church offers a beautiful opportunity for God to heal and help us at times when we might need Him the most – when we are having surgery, dealing with a physical, mental, emotional, or even spiritual affliction. It is during these difficult times that we need the Holy Spirit’s gifts of strength, faith, peace, and courage. It is during these times, as well, that we should seek to receive the sacrament of the anointing of the sick.
This sacrament, unlike some of our other sacraments, can be administered more than once, especially if a person has a chronic illness.
